Hydra is the jewel of the Saronic Gulf with rich tradition and culture that is highlighted particularly during the summer. Its well-preserved architecture is concentrated in the main town and attracts hundreds of visitors from Europe. The island became cosmopolitan in the mid-1960s as it was the favorite retreat of many renowned Greek and international artists, often being characterized as a place of inspiration for artists.
The few settlements of Hydra are more traditional and tranquil. Beautiful houses separated by narrow alleys, small beaches with crystalline waters and gorgeous hilly spots comprise the idyllic scenery of Hydra.
